Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This study investigates the cosmological implications of $f(R,Σ,T)$ gravity by reconstructing the Hubble parameter from a logarithmic parameterization of the $O_m(z)$ diagnostic. Our approach offers a model-independent way to probe the nature of dark energy and differentiate it from a cosmological constant. We derive the field equations for $f(R,Σ,T) = R + Σ+ 2πηT$ within the homogeneous, isotropic, and spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) metric. A comprehensive analysis of key physical parameters, including the equation of state (EoS) parameter $ω(z)$, the $(ω-ω')$-plane, the squared sound speed $\vartheta^2$, and various energy conditions (Null, Dominant, Strong), is presented. Our findings reveal a dynamic EoS parameter that consistently remains within the quintessence regime ($-1 < ω< -1/3$), approaching $ω= -1$ in the far future, thereby avoiding phantom behavior and maintaining the weak energy condition. The model successfully reproduces the cosmic transition from deceleration to acceleration, as indicated by the deceleration parameter $q(z)$ crossing zero. While the model aligns well with observational data for cosmic expansion, the analysis of $\vartheta^2$ indicates classical instability, a point requiring further theoretical refinement. Overall, this work demonstrates the viability of $f(R,Σ,T)$ gravity as a framework capable of describing the universe's accelerated expansion, consistent with current cosmological observations, while offering a dynamic alternative to the $Λ$CDM model.
